This Week's Featured Article MarketBeat Week in Review – 03/09 - 03/13Authored by MarketBeat Staff. Date Posted: 3/14/2026. Despite continued volatility, stocks have stayed resilient as investors navigate the fog of war. The story is largely about oil: when the price of crude rises, stocks often fall, and vice versa. But the larger issue is uncertainty — specifically, how long the conflict will continue and what energy prices will look like when it's over. The economic indicators look generally favorable. The CPI reading came in as expected, continuing to show that inflation growth is moderating toward the Federal Reserve's preferred target. Earnings season has also supported the view of an economy that remains resilient. All of this sets the stage for the Federal Reserve meeting and decision next Wednesday. Interest rates are likely to remain unchanged, but whatever the outcome, MarketBeat analysts will highlight the opportunities that volatility creates. Here are some of our most popular articles from this week. What if you could shrink your entire wealth journey from decades down to just 24 hours? Sounds impossible… But I'll show you how Elon Musk is about to make it a reality. This could be the best investment opportunity of the decade. Key Points - Stocks moved lower this week on investor uncertainty over the length of the Iran conflict and its impact on oil prices.
- The economic indicators remain favorable and support the likelihood that interest rates will remain unchanged after next week’s Federal Reserve meeting.
- Here are some of our most popular articles from this week.
- Special Report: Elon Musk already made me a "wealthy man"
Articles by Thomas Hughes SpaceX is one of the most discussed companies, and it's not trading publicly...yet. This week, Thomas Hughes explained why SpaceX is critical to the commercial space industry and why the deal's structure will be key to enabling the company's eventual IPO. Hughes also wrote about the earnings report from FuelCell Energy (NASDAQ: FCEL). The balance sheet is improving, but the company continues to burn cash, highlighting the challenges that remain in bringing hydrogen to the mainstream. Costco Wholesale Corp. (NASDAQ: COST) delivered a solid earnings report this week. Hughes noted that the stock offers investors a buy-now, get-paid-later scenario, which many still believe could include a special dividend. Articles by Sam Quirke This week, Sam Quirke suggested the message to Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) shareholders may be: "be careful what you wish for." The company reported increased EV sales in China, but it wasn't enough to lift the stock, which investors now seem to be viewing as more of an AI/robotics play. Quirke also checked in on Atlassian Corp. (NASDAQ: TEAM). The company's stock is down roughly 80% over the past year, making it one of the technology sector's hardest-hit names amid AI-related selling. Read Quirke's piece to see why the worst may be over. Big-oil stocks are often bought as investments rather than trades, but these aren't normal times. Quirke analyzed the surge in Chevron Corp. (NYSE: CVX) stock and explained why the trade may unwind faster than investors expect. Articles by Chris Markoch The recent stock sell-off is a reminder that valuation doesn't matter—until it does. That has led investors back into blue-chip names. This week, Chris Markoch gave investors three blue-chip stocks with defensive qualities for the sector-rotation trade. Gold continues to attract attention in the metals and mining world. But Markoch pointed out an emerging copper shortage and why three copper stocks are positioned to pick up slack from aging mines. Markoch also wrote about Evolv Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: EVLV). The manufacturer of AI-powered weapons-detection systems reported a surprise profit this quarter on strong demand, a result that could change the long-term outlook for this speculative stock. Articles by Ryan Hasson Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOGL) has been one of the best-performing names among the Mag 7 over the last 12 months. Ryan Hasson analyzed the latest pullback in GOOGL stock and explained why the fundamentals suggest this is a healthy pullback within a long-term uptrend. The circular AI trade continues. This week, NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ: NVDA) announced a $2 billion investment in Nebius Group NV (NASDAQ: NBIS). Hasson helped answer the next question: Is it time to invest in NBIS? Some investors are seeking the relative safety of dividend stocks during this period of volatility. Looking for yield can sometimes be a trap, but Hasson highlighted five high-yield stocks with histories of outperforming in times of market stress. Articles by Leo Miller This week, Leo Miller offered two ideas for picking stocks in volatile times. One is to look at companies insiders are buying when their shares are out of favor; Miller identified three insider-buying stocks. Investors can also pay attention to companies that announce stock buyback programs. Miller highlighted three names that have announced substantial buybacks, which is generally a bullish signal. After a strong earnings report this week, Marvell Technology (NASDAQ: MRVL) is beginning to close the custom-chip gap with Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ: AVGO). Miller explained why the post-earnings stock surge may be just the beginning. Articles by Nathan Reiff D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) continues to show why it's one of the more promising names in the quantum computing sector. However, Nathan Reiff reminded readers that D-Wave remains far from profitability, which has dampened investor enthusiasm (read more). Biotechnology is expected to have a strong year, particularly companies working on oncology treatments. This week, Reiff highlighted two small-cap biotech stocks that have recently launched cancer drugs and the growth challenges they still face. Although gold has lost a little of its luster, it still looks like a good year to own the yellow metal. Reiff outlined three ways for investors to play gold without taking custody of physical bullion. Articles by Dan Schmidt European stocks have been dropping since the conflict with Iran began, but broad selloffs frequently create opportunities for patient investors. Schmidt highlighted three European stocks that investors may want to buy at a discount. There are signs the crypto winter may be ending. If so, now could be a time for speculators to re-enter the crypto trade. Schmidt offered three crypto stocks that don't require investors to own specific coins. It's been a strong couple of weeks for oil-related stocks, but Schmidt also pointed out three ETFs investors should consider selling as oil trades at multi-year highs. Articles by Jeffrey Neal Johnson ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd. (NYSE: ZIM) reported a surprise profit in its earnings report. But Jeffrey Neal Johnson noted the bigger story: the company is being acquired, creating "a classic merger arbitrage scenario for investors." On the M&A front, Johnson also highlighted the potential merger between Cintas Corp. (NASDAQ: CTAS) and UniFirst Corp. (NYSE: UNF). By merging with its largest rival, Cintas would be creating an industry juggernaut. Earnings from retail stocks this season show that the more things change, the more they stay the same. That's why Ross Stores (NASDAQ: ROST) and TJX Companies (NYSE: TJX) are once again proving their value to treasure-hunt consumers. Articles by Jordan Chussler In volatile times, it can pay to keep things simple. Jordan Chussler explained why the largest defense-sector ETF is likely to keep rallying during the conflict with Iran and why it's loaded with companies poised to benefit from increased Pentagon spending. One of the biggest stories of the week was the deal between Hims & Hers Health (NYSE: HIMS) and Novo Nordisk (NYSE: NVO). The two companies went from combatants to partners, and HIMS shareholders are the beneficiaries. The EV trade is still concentrated among a few key names. This week, NIO Inc. (NYSE: NIO) re-entered the conversation after the company reported a surprise profit that could help it gain market share in China. Articles by Jennifer Ryan Woods An unusually warm winter might suggest a falling stock price for a company like Vail Resorts Inc. (NYSE: MTN), right? As Jennifer Ryan Woods explained, it may not be that simple—the price action in MTN stock remains subdued as investor sentiment continues to be mixed. Consumers continue to spend, but "choiceful" behavior is likely to remain part of the conversation throughout 2026. This week, Woods highlighted three ETFs holding companies that continue to capture a share of consumers' wallets. Articles by Peter Frank Like much of the broader market, investors will need to pick regional bank stocks carefully. With that in mind, Peter Frank explained why several acquisitions are helping Huntington Bancshares (NASDAQ: HBAN) expand beyond its Midwest roots, which could signal a growth story that goes beyond a compounding dividend. |
